Package: signing-party Version: 0.4.4-2 Severity: important Hello!
I met Martin F. Krafft (madduck) last week-end for a key-signing party (well, we were only two :-( ). Last Monday he and me signed our keys using caff and as I was at university I used the university mailserver via postfix (I'm not allowed to use my own mailserver, as port 25 is blocked). And then the problem... BTW, I'm using No Gnus 0.4 on GNU Emacs snapshot and all the PGP stuffs work well. 1) Every mail caff generated for each Martin's key was unusable: even on my bcc: copy, I'm asked if I want to decrypt the message, but then nothing happens. Here how the mail looks inside: ===== ------------=_1131976584-9445-9 Content-Typ e: application/octet-stream; name="msg.asc" Content-Disposition: inline; filenam e="msg.asc" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version : GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) hQIOAwLI9ujV8M7qEAf/SAx+ZakBkPhQWRfkeMPBKyJsb2tj7YWN ROqcTJX5t48k kl9wdHfWxZp477SWghy+C/kgxVpIrwuqMAVYDlwV9YIADdy0HE7M9mBPyrYzniwN LZ ===== 2) For each key I've in my signature [1], only the mail to my University address (zoo.unige.ch) wasn't readable. Again, I'm asked to decrypt the message, then asked for my PGP key's password and the message looks like the one I sent to Martin: ===== -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Ver sion: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) hQEOA64ryyXEqGQIEAP/fIcU5QoiSo9jmiUzEMxkX7pbPvZq mdHkEeAdql9T7IBz 5geUZxHCZiipeccPavMtA2DMWQmSgeeMeqgGb+YJvlnF9ac4twMwwQGpYOvPE9u ===== The first thing I thought was a specific problem with the university mailserver (i.e., it cannot manage encrypted mails). So, I tried sending encrypted mail to my University address using Mozilla Mail 2:1.7.12-1 + Enigmail 2:0.93-1 and No Gnus 0.4: both worked perfectly, I mean, the mail was sent through the university mailserver and it was readable. Another test was to send an encrypted mail through a third mailserver (the Switzerland Bluewin one) to my university address: I could read the encrypted mail. AFAIK, the problem should not be the university mailserver. Now, I'd like to keep my university address on my PGP key, but if the next time I meet someone for a key-signing party I'll receive unusable mails for the university signed key, well, that's won't be good. Is there any way to locate the problem, I mean, is it a mailserver problem or somewhere else? If the problem isn't the university mailserver, I guess it should be in libgnupg-interface-perl or in libmime-perl, but I'm not a skilled Perl coder (and this is the main reason I file this bug to signing-party).
